[Football] Liverpool, champions league

[Billy the Fish]

The ball didn't get changed.

Did it not? There were two balls on the pitch until a second before TAA kicks it, it looked like the ballboy put a new ball in the quadrant.

I'm not judging either way before anyone jumps on me, it's just a point of interest that I've never seen happen like that before.

Watching Messi tonight it's incredible what he does, even if the move(s) don't always come to much. He often starts way behind the halfway line, ambling along and before you know it he is right where the ball is.

Impossible to fairly tackle Messi, even three good players from any opposition, cannot achieve it.

 

[Questions]

No,a max of 5.

And that was a helluva game.

Yes you’re right, just checked. That would have royally pissed off the 4th placed team in the Premier if that ever happened Birdie.

 

[Bakero]

And 5 times in their history.

Making them the joint 3rd most successful side in the history of the competition. In your eyes they haven't proved themselves in Europe?

 

[Hamilton]

What an amazing game. Football always throws up surprises.

Sunday anyone?

Fantastic performance from Liverpool, and I didn’t think Barca played that badly.

Klopp's interview was fantastic. Stood there with a cheesy grin like a fan who can't explain what has happened, dropping the 'f' bomb and then stumbling upon a near perfect summation of what football is all about. I've just wound it back to quote it properly:

"There are more important things in the world, but creating this kind of emotional atmosphere together is so special."

He's spot on. Shared emotional experience is what makes it the greatest game in the world. His words took me right back to the Amex on the night of our promotion.

3-0 up from the first leg, I think Barca needed some tips on defensive football!

 

[Doonhamer7]

Wow, I cant believe that just happened. Liverpool with no Salah or Firmino. Football miracles do happen now that 28-1 on Albion to beat Man City on Sunday looks tempting

Bong from 30 yards, 95th minute. It is written.

True, but just imagine how successful they’d have been if Messi didn’t choke in the big games

 

[Sussex Nomad]

And also played the two best passes of the game. He is the greatest player ever and anyone who criticises him for not turning up to big games (3 champions league finals, 3 wins, 2 goals, 2 man of the match performances) has clearly missed most of his career and is just talking shit.

His team just got totally outplayed tonight and no one player could have turned that around.

Second best player ever. His compatriot won the World Cup single handedly.

With an Ali J assist!

 

[Sussex Nomad]

But your point was Messi doesn’t turn up for big games? Not sure what this has to do with it.

I have never said Messi doesn't turn up mate, please quote me. I just enjoyed a right fest of footy tonight.

There is no way we’ll draw score or remotely win against City! Where’s Liverpool have done this sort of thing time and time again. Oh, and spent Billions to do so!

 

[Bodian]

That was the ULTIMATE comeback, the ultimate big European night, a club in perfect harmony. Hats off to you Jurgen Klopp, you've built something special there.

I can't decide if their comeback in the 2005 was more 'ultimate' or not. 3-0 down at half-time and looking crap. Total turn-around in one half.

You have to hand it to them. Once is amazing, twice??

 

[Bakero]

Just the 112 goals in 135 CL games. Not even one a match.

Roma. St Etienne. Dortmund. Athens.

Blows you away sometimes to watch that happen.
